ASTON, Pa.- Eastern University Women's Soccer scored four first-half goals and held on to top Neumann University 6-0 in the season-opener for both teams. Emily Cole scored twice and added a pair of assists to lead the Eastern attack.

Fourteen minutes in, Cole set up Stephanie Le for a 1-0 lead. Cole, who fired a match-high 11 shots, worked her way into the right side of the box and slipped a ball between a pair of Neumann defenders. Le buried a one-timer for her second career goal.

"I was very pleased with Emily's vision on that goal," head coach Dan Mouw stated. "She recognized the great chance that Steph was going to have and found her with a perfect pass." Le, who scored her first career goal in the final match of 2014, now has a two-game scoring streak.

Cole got on the board with a shot from the top of the box in the 29th minute. Courtney Davis set up the play with an entry pass from the right side.

Hanna Kontanis and Amber Stirling entered the match in the 37th minute. Less than a minute later Stirling found Kontanis with a flighted ball in the middle of the box. Kontanis, a freshman midfielder, volleyed home her first college goal on the first touch of her career for a 3-0 lead. Stirling closed out the scoring on a long pass from Alex Imperatore in the 43rd minute.

"I was very pleased with Alex today," Mouw stated, "She did a nice job defensively, and she did a good job of recognizing when their back line stepped a little too high. She could have had a couple assists on counter plays today."

Davis scored her first career goal ten minutes into the second half. Cole played a ball into space and Davis converted a good first touch into a 12 yard shot in the middle of the goal. Cole scored in the 64th minute to close out the scoring.

"I was pleased with the day," Mouw concluded. "We will say happy, but not satisfied. It was really good to score some goals and execute and to get everyone's feet wet, but we know that we need to get just a little better every day."

The Eagles (1-0) had a 24-4 edge in shots. Adrianna Swinehart and Jules Leco each played a half in goal to share the shutout.

The Eagles will play SUNY Brockport (1-0) at the Haverford Kick-off Classic on Saturday.
